Do not use the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. If you:
wear pacemakers or other medical devices
—
electric disturbance might interfere with correct operation of these
devices,
have back or neck problems,
have recently undergone abdominal/chest surgery,
have breast implants, or
are pregnant.
If you have body piercings in the chest or neck area, you may experience additional pain when the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. triggers.
Unexpected inflation.
The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. can be sensitive to sudden motorcycle or body movements. Do not perform maneuvers not associated with
normal riding (such as wheelies or side skidding) while wearing the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. These movements can cause unexpected
inflation of the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S.
D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is designed for track use.
The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is designed to be used exclusively on racetracks
—
i.e., circuits closed to traffic. Under no circumstances
should it be used on public roads or in normal traffic. The computer algorithm is specifically tuned to racing conditions and is not
suited for use in traffic or during normal driving.
PREPARATION
Make sure your D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is properly sized to fit you.
Make sure your D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. fits you properly. If your D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is too large, it can interfere with your helmet
when triggered. Helmet interference could increase your risk of injury in an accident or could cause you to lose control of your
motorcycle. In addition, if your D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is not the correct size, it can cause unexpected inflation. If you have questions
about the fit of your D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S., contact your Dainese dealer.
Avoid extreme temperatures.
Only use the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. in temperatures between 0ºC
–
40ºC (32ºF
–
104ºF). The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S.
might not work
properly with prolonged exposure to temperatures outside of that range.
USE
RIDING
Always wear the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. with all protectors. Wearing the suit without the protectors could increase the risk of injury in the
event of a fall.
Perform a pre-ride check.
Perform a pre-ride check before each use to make sure the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is ready to activate properly. Make sure that:
There are no signs of wear, breakage, or damage. If you have questions, contact your nearest Authorized Dainese Service
Center or the Dainese Technical Assistance Service or an authorized Dainese dealer.
The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is fully charged. Charge if necessary.
The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. has correctly identified the GPS signal. The D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. will not switch on, function, or
be triggered if it has not identified the GPS signal.
All protectors are correctly positioned.
All fasteners of the suit into which the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. is integrated are closed. In particular, if you do not close the
front zip, the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. might not protect you.
Make sure that there are no items in pockets or in backpacks that could perforate or damage the air bag.
Use with other garments.
Never wear any other item or device outside or inside the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. in the areas to be inflated. Cumbersome or blunt
objects positioned near the body or in the areas to be inflated might cause damage in the event of a fall or trigger the inflation of the
system. The D-AIR RACING I.P.S. must be the last garment to be put on by the rider, with the exception of the D-AIR RACING I.P.S.-
compatible rain cover.
Never wear any accessories (e.g., rainwear, backpacks, buttons, patches, bandanas, ribbons) over the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S., unless
they have been specifically designed to be compatible with the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. The interaction of accessories with the airbag
during inflation may be dangerous.
Riding in light rain.
In light rain, do not use the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. without the specifically designed Dainese rain cover. This cover will allow the airbag
to inflate if necessary. If necessary, leave the device to dry in a ventilated place at room temperature after use. Do not use hair dryers
or other heating devices to dry the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S.
Do not use the D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. if there is more than light rain. D-AIR RACING 1 I.P.S. may be damaged by exposure to rain.
